I want to launch a side project as a real service and study Kubernetes, but managed services from AWS/GCP (EKS, GKE, etc.) are too expensive. On the other hand, running it only on a local computer makes it difficult to experience network configurations or actual deployment environments. We will utilize the "Always Free" tier of Oracle Cloud (OCI), which offers the most powerful free benefits among existing public clouds. By installing the lightweight yet powerful k3s, we will build a Linux server and Kubernetes environment capable of hosting actual services from scratch—all at zero cost. After taking this course, you will gain a general understanding of cloud networking and possess your own Kubernetes cluster infrastructure where you can deploy and operate your applications for free.
